| Opplysninger | This case study discusses an experience of conducting visual research with participants online. As a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic, researchers have been forced to re-think their data collection methods, and to adapt these in order to achieve meaningful virtual interaction with respondents. Activities that relied on the researcher's facilitation of more practical processes that aimed to be participatory in nature, and involved, in particular, the use of visual methods, have all of a sudden become more challenging to implement. The case presented here shows how the visual research method of timeline drawing has been modified into a virtual format, where participants work with the researcher on a flexible online template in order to build a sequence of events that are significant to them in relation to the research focus. While a degree of participation does become lost in this process, as the actual "drawing" is handed over to the researcher, this method's adaptation shows how online digital technology can serve an important role in enabling visual research conducted during remote fieldwork. This case study is based on the experience of conducting research to understand the effect of the Palestinian Reality TV show The President on its participants.
